Anterior minimal invasive internal fixator versus open plating in treatment of unstable pelvic ring injuries

INFIX is a minimally invasive procedure that provides much lower operative time and less blood loss than open plating in the anterior pelvic ring fracture management. Meanwhile, more anatomical reduction of the anterior pelvic ring fracture was achieved through plate fixation. There was a significant difference in the postoperative symphyseal diastasis achieved with plating compared to INFIX [plating (5.47 ± 2.03 mm) lower than INFIX(11.40 ± 3.76 mm)].
